Wouldn't this be a simple addition to the GUI for static IP configuration? I
would think that this is a fairly common scenario for firewall users in the
class that would look to M0n0wall.

Subject: RE: [m0n0wall] IP aliases on external interface
Hi Jason,
Yes this is supported. You need to use Proxy ARP so that m0n0wall sends ARP
replies on the WAN interface for IP addresses other than that specified in
the WAN configuration. This is in effect 'binding' the multiple IPs to the
WAN interface.
Once additional IPs are configured in Proxy ARP then they can be used for
NAT, either Inbound, Server NAT, 1:1 or Outbound. If you want to use Inbound
NATing based on ports, don't forget that any IP address other than that
specified in the WAN configuration needs to be configured in Server NAT.
Bridging is only really appropriate if you want to assign IP addresses from
the network on your WAN interface directly to hosts behind m0n0wall.
